Podcasts about Hawker

Corporate pilot (and MrBeast 100-day jet winner) Armando Carrion jumps in to unpack the ops behind living on a Hawker 800 for 100 straight days—no devices, no Netflix, just Part 91 brainpower and a lot of extension cords. We get into air-to-air formation over SoCal and the Grand Canyon (yep, with a Bonanza), CRM, and why Armando turned down the “double-or-nothing” 100-day extension. We also talk post-win realities: maintenance bills, management, and why the airplane is probably headed to a new owner.

In this episode I am joined by Francois Breedt. After briefly reminding listeners of Francois' background, he describes how the "Falconry Gods" intervened and brought was he anticipated would be a very good season with his four-times inter-mewed female Peale's Scottish peregrine cross to an end. Francois explains what he anticipates he will do in response to the setback, and he talks about his dog work plus his most memorable day in the field. 

Cam Coley returns to the show for his first update. After briefly reminding listeners of Cam's falconry situation, he and I talk about the progress that he has made with his new English setter pup.  Cam then tells us which one of the two options he was considering when we last spoke - going strait to flying wild quarry or opting to transition to Phase II of the Perfect Pigeon approach. We then discuss the use of bagged quarry in South African falconry. Cam had indicated that it was his intent to release his peregrine at the end of August and I ask Cam if he intends to follow through with that plan, and why he believes that doing so is in the best interests of the hawk. If, in fact, Cam does release his falcon, then it was his intent to replace it with either a passage lanneret or a musket black spar - he tells us which of the two options he has settled on. We then focus on some highlights of his season thus far. We conclude the episode with a description of Cam's most recent flight.  Thanks for listening to the Fat Bird, Ugly Dog Podcast - I hope you enjoy the episode.

In Episode 34, of Season 5 of Driven by Data: The Podcast, Kyle Winterbottom was re-joined by Malcolm Hawker, Chief Data Officer at Profisee, fresh off the publication of his new book 'The Data Hero Playbook' They discuss what prompted him to write the book and the insights from within it, how he kept witnessing the same issues and challenges while working at Gartner and the real reason he decided to leave! Malcolm dives into the challenges faced by data leaders, the importance of shifting from a mindset of limiting beliefs to one of growth and development, and the need for Data Leaders to take accountability. They discuss why concepts such as Data Culture, Data Literacy and 'Garbage In, Garbage Out' have become excuses and how delivering value solves all of those problems.

Andre Cilliers returns to the show with another update of his season.  After giving the listeners a brief reminder of Andre's situation. We then talk about what changes the rainy season have brought about and how more water on the landscape has affected his falconry.  Andre then clarifies what South Africans mean when they talk about a "vlei system".  We then turn our attention to Andre's update beginning with his passage lanner that he had acquired when we last spoke.  We then talk about the foils of hawking Cape francolin, and a focus that Andre specifically outlined as a goal for this season - a "waiting on" flight over grey francolin with his dog solidly on point. Andre describes the downside of a falcon confident that it can catch and kill whatever is flushed beneath it regardless of whether the quarry flushed was intentional.  With July half over, I ask Andre if he intends to extend his hawking season or put his birds up as he typically does when the days get hotter and his work days get busier.  We conclude the episode with Andre offering two some personal insight into the value that falconry can bring to a game hawker with good perspective.

Kyle Perrin flies an imprint black sparrowhawk. He joins me this week to talk about his bird, his dogs, and his desire to pursue helmeted guinea fowl, catching them on the rise after a long, open slip. Kyle explains why he chose to fly a black spar, including how he manages his hawk to ensure she remains feather perfect.  He also gives us some insight into the main differences between the African goshawk and the black spar.  Guinea fowl can be flown all year round and Kyle talks about how he manages the timing of molt to cater to available mid-winter daylight hours. We then turn our attention to his preferred quarry - the guinea fowl - and a description of his hawking grounds, and the origin story of this particular black spar. Kyle explains the approach that his is going to take in an effort to achieve the hawking style he prefers, and he tells us about his approach to developing a well-adjusted short-wing.  We conclude the episode talking about Kyle's most recent outing, and his hawk's sudden change in heart when it comes to chasing "fur".  I hope you enjoy this episode.  Thanks for listening.

In this episode of Becoming a Bowhunter, Matty sits down with 21-year-old Logan Hawker — a young bowhunter who's quickly earning his stripes through persistence, hard-earned lessons, and a deep respect for the hunt. Logan first got into bowhunting thanks to a mad-keen neighbor, and even managed to pull his rifle-hunting dad over to the dark side (aka stick and string). These days, he's putting in 20–30 km days chasing boars in the mountains.  This one's full of laughs, insight, and the kind of grounded stories every hunter can relate to.

Anton Muller, known for his expertise in hawking with lanner falcons, joins me to talk falconry in the Free State Province. After introducing himself, Anton talks about his farming practices, and how an experience with a spotted eagle owl influenced his decision to fly lanners. We then talk about his hawking grounds, his preferred quarry. Lanners naturally make use of thermals to gain pitch, and Anton talks about the way that they do so. Anton describes how the loss a particularly good peregrine falcon led to his focus on lanners.  We talk slipping a lanner on sand grouse and use of dogs when hunting sand grouse.  Anton provides some insight into the commonly held belief that lanners can be lazy.  We conclude the episode with a broad ranging discussion on gamehawking with lanners.  I hope you enjoy this episode with Anton - thanks for listening.

 In this bonus episode of South African Game Hawker, I am again joined by Andre Cilliers, Thean Prinsloo, and Scott Mc Farlane Chase.  I talk to each of them about their flights of the day, and their plans once the meet is done.  Andre's birds connect, his dog earns a good rest day, and he ducks out a day early as work interrupts his falconry. Thean continues his strategy of putting game up under his falcon opting to provide as many opportunities as he can. Scott has a clear sense of his path ahead, and we speculate as to the origin of his lanner.

In this bonus episode of South African Game Hawker, I am joined by Andre Cilliers, Thean Prinsloo, and Scott Mc Farlane Chase.  I talk to each of them about their flights of the day, and their plans for Day 2 of the meet.  We also get some insight into some South African cuisine and translation of a few Afrikaans words.  I hope you enjoy this episode and the glimpse it provides into a South African falconry meet.

 In this, the third episode of South African Game Hawker, I am joined by Cam Coley. We begin the episode talking about Cam's new pup, and we find out just how much Cam spoils his dog.  We then learn a little about Kwazulu- Natal, the province that Cam lives in. Cam follows this by describing the landscapes he hunts in, and the main species of quarry that he pursues with his hawks. Cam has both a winter falconry season and a summer falconry season, and he talks about his falconry calendar.  We then turn our attention to his hawking, and Cam outlines what he is currently doing with his wild-caught female peregrine as well as what he plans to do with her before the season is over.  We conclude the conversation learning about Cam's preferred approach to hunting with wild-taken hawks. I hope you enjoy this episode, and thanks for listening to the Fat Bird, Ugly Dog Podcast. 

Andre Cilliers joins me again this week to talk about his personal game hawking circumstances.  We begin the episode talking about the landscapes in which Andre hawks and the quarry available to him. We then talk about Andre's annual falconry calendar.  I ask Andre about the preferred long-winging aesthetic in South Africa relative to that of North America. We then turn our attention to the circumstances surrounding the death of one of Andre's birds, and he tells us how the South African falconry community handles such situations. We finish off the episode talking game hawking. I hope you enjoy the second episode of South African Game Hawker.

This episode marks the start of a new series, South African (SA) Game Hawker. Thanks to Andre Cilliers for suggesting that we follow the northern hemisphere version of game hawker with a  South African edition.  Andre and I are joined Cam Coley and Francois Breedt in this introductory episode.  Before asking the guys to introduce themselves, we begin with a geography lesson to give listeners a sense of country.  We then turn our attention to the SA regulatory framework, and then talk about the raptors and the quarry available to falconers in SA. We finish off the episode with some game hawking stories from each of the guests.

In this final episode of Game Hawker Edition, Matt Mullenix joins me to finish out the second season of the Fat Bird, Ugly Dog Podcast. Matt and I begin the episode talking about Matt's mindset as he continued to hawk his American Kestrel, "Coco", after having lost his merlin to a Cooper's Hawk.  Matt then tells us about the benchmark he uses to evaluate the degree to which he is doing his hawk justice (Intended Quarry Per Hunt), and we discuss how far below and above that benchmark one has to be before they are no longer gamehawking). Matt then weighs in with his opinion on the relative importance of "place, time, and weight", including the ideas he calls "take two" and "take four". We then discuss "Coco's" season and Matt's plans for next season. We finish the episode with Matt book recommendation.

When 22-year-old Lindsay Ann Hawker moved to Japan in late 2006 to teach English, she never imagined the danger that would follow her. A man claimed to be her student, chased her home, and then he went undetected for two years after the crime. Everyone was looking for his face, but there's a wild reason they wouldn't have even known if they were right beside him.Let's get into the horrifying case of a bright young woman whose life was stolen, and how her family went through years of more heartache and questions as they pursued justice for their daughter and sister.Connect with Paige:Instagram: instagram.com/reverietruecrime TikTok:

It was a crime that united two nations…in despair. The case of Tatsuya Ichihashi and his victim Lindsay Hawker. This case reached nationwide status when, after killing Hawker, Tatsuya went on the run, even obtaining plastic surgery and hiding in a WW2 bunker to avoid detection, and it would take police years to catch him….2 and a half to be exact.    Check out our other shows!: Cryptic Soup w/ Thena & Kylee Strange & Unexplained True Crime Guys YouTube EVERYTHING TRUE CRIME GUYS:   https://linktr.ee/Truecrimeguysproductions True Crime Guys Music: True Crime Guys Music on Spotify OhMyGaia.com Code: Crimepine Patreon.com/truecrimeguys Patreon.com/sandupodcast Merch: truecrimeguys.threadless.com     Sources: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bmeHeUNZghk https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Lindsay_Hawker https://murderpedia.org/male.I/i/ichihashi-tatsuya.htm https://casocriminal.org/en/asian-cases/lindsay-hawker-murdered-by-tatsuya-ichihashi-in-japan/

Bill speaks with Australian political strategist & commentator Bruce Hawker about the election.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

One day out from the Australian Election and Labor seems to have it in the bag. If the polling stacks up, Anthony Albanese will remain Prime Minister and Peter Dutton will once again be relegated to opposition. There's been criticism across the ditch that the coalition's campaign has been full of U-turns and back tracks – undermining their credibility. Australian Political Commentator Bruce Hawker told Mike Hosking Dutton presented a risky persona, with many of his policies and comments quite Trumpish in their attitude. He says people likely started to think they'd prefer having the devil they know. The state of Dutton's policies were also a concern, Hawker says, with many feeling underdone.

Send us a textWelcome back to The Writing Apothecary and to another return guest and my bestie Peta Hawker, she was one of the first guests on the podcast and I love any chance I get to chat to her. Her process has changed dramatically from when we first recorded this so it's fun to revist it all. Peta's Official BioMy daily grind involves content writing and knowledge management for a large organisation. When I'm not attached to my work computer, I like to squeeze our three cats (much to their chagrin), engage in linguistic wrestling matches with my partner or roll around on my yoga mat. A degree in writing and publishing and a diploma in yoga teaching remind me that I chose to quantify my passions with expensive pieces of paper, but I have no regrets about either one. Fantasy captured my heart when I was young, and it serves as the majority of what I read and write. Let's throw in a good dash of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, a sprinkle of Jonathan Safran Foer and a pinch of Lewis Carroll and we've made a meal fit for my queendom.  Peta's Website: https://www.petahawker.com/ Peta's Social: @author.peta.hawkerWant exclusive behind the scenes and early access to episodes join up to the mailing list over here.If you're looking for a cheerleader for your writing, then head on over to https://dreamingfullyawake.com/work-with-me/ and let's have a chat about how we can work together to get your writing on track.

Heath Garner returns to Game Hawker Edition to round out his 3-episode series. After a brief reminder describing Heath's hawking circumstances, he and I talk about the mystery book that Heath received just after he returned from the NAFA meet.  Heath then gives us an update on his approach of removing his dog from the field to encourage better pitch from his falcon, "Finn". He also describes progress with regard to his bird's beak injury from a collision with hog wire fencing. I incorrectly assume that "Finn" had stopped carrying and had made it home after each day's outing.  Heath gives us a run down of the 4th Annual Snipe Hawking Invitational, and describes his plans for next season. We finish off with a description of Heath's most memorable day of he 2024/25 hawking season. I hope you enjoy this episode of Game Hawker Edition.

Corey Roelke is back to finish off his 3-part series. He begins  the episode by  telling us about "Hela" and her new litter of pups. Then we talk about how the season finished for each of his three peregrine falcons, his plans for each of them, and his plans for next season.  Corey talks about why he chose to fly three birds and the relative risks of flying ducks despite the presence of avian influenza.  We finish off, discussing the relative importance of consistent hunting weight versus consistent hunting time, and we get Corey's book recommendation for the off-season. 

Jeff Broadbent returns to wrap-up his Game Hawker series. I provide a synopsis of Jeff's accounts of his season told in Parts 1 and 2, and then we discuss progress of his recent addition to his team, "Captain Jack", his English setter. Jeff then describes the events of a particularly disastrous day for him and his hawking partner, Arnaud Van Wetter. We then turn our attention to Jeff's plans for next season, including some change he intends to make.  Jeff then offers his opinions on the relative tradeoffs between managing for hunting weight, hunting time, and feeding time.

In this episode Dale Guthormsen joins me to finish out his  three episode contribution to Game Hawker Edition. After briefly reminding listeners of Dale's hawking season, he and I discuss this season relative to others he has experienced and what he intends to do differently next season.  We then turn our attention to a common theme that I've been talking about with guests on Game Hawker Edition; the relative importance of keeping a hawk within a narrow range in body mass and the idea of maintaining a consistent hunting time. I then get Dale's opinion on managing hunting weight using ounces rather than grams.  We then talk about what Dale means when he discusses the concept of "first day high" and "second day high". I ask Dale to comment on the quality of falconry today in comparison to what is was three or four decades ago,  and I find out what are the aesthetics that he is looking for in his falcons. We finish off the episode with Dale's most memorable day this season.

It's unclear if Australia will hit the US with counter-tariffs after Donald Trump's recent announcement. The US President has confirmed Australia won't be exempt from new tariffs on steel and aluminium imports from tonight. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has called the tariffs 'entirely unjustified'. Australian political strategist Bruce Hawker says locals know it's probably not worth fighting over. "Most Australians will be saying - look, let's let this thing ride. It's not good, it's an act of b*******, I guess, by a country that's been friendly and loyal to Australia."

Steve Chindgren joins me for the last episode of his 3-part series of Game Hawker Edition. We begin the episode with a brief discussion of what each passing season means to Steve who is now in his 70s and still hawking hard. We then talk about the attributes of a good falconer as passed down to Steve from his mentor.  Steve tells us why he switched from flying in the mornings to flying in the evenings, and we talk about the tradeoffs between managing for hunting weight versus hunting time.  We then talk about Gerald Richards and the Utah Sky Trials. Steve then outlines his plans for next season, and gives us his opinion on the quality of North American falconry today in comparison to what it was half a century ago.  Steve then describes his most memorable day of hawking for the 2024/25 season. I hope you enjoy this episode.  Thanks for listening.  

Well, the UK falconry season wrapped up for Simon Tyers on January 31, and he returns to the program to give us run down of the changes he made at the outset of the season, whether he believes they were of value, and what changes he might make for the 2025/26 season. I then ask Simon about his views on the importance of maintaining consistency among three aspects of gamehawking - the location where one hunts, the weight of the hawk, and the time of day. We then turn our attention to the process that Simon likes to follow when returning his hawks to the free-loft mews. Before concluding the episode with a book recommendation for the off season, I ask Simon about his most memorable day of the 2024/25 season. Thanks for listening to Game Hawker Edition.

Well, Matt Mullenix is back, this time as one of the cohort of falconers participating in Game Hawker Edition. Matt trapped a passage jack merlin this season, and we begin the episode discussing the backstory associated with Matt's acquisition of "Artie the Artful Dodger". We then turned our attention to Matt's experience with "Artie's" training, beginning with feeding on the fist and hooding, and culminating with "Artie's" first free flight and then his first kill while Matt was on the road visiting friends in Texas and hawking in Liberal, Kansas at the NAFA meet. On returning home, Matt leads us through his time over the Christmas and New Year's break. We conclude the episode with "Artie" dominating his quarry and forcing Matt to work hard for the chaos created by each flush, which undoubtedly led to attracting the attention of at least one of the members of the local free-living raptors also engaged in securing a meal.

Heath Garner joins me to give us his first update of his hawking season. Heath begins the episode by telling us about the way his dogs have adjusted after their brouhaha in November, and he tells us about a gift that was mailed to him, presumably  to help him manage his dogs. Heath and I then have the obligatory discussion about weight management before turning our attention to the hawking period leading into the NAFA meet.  I then ask Heath about managing his time at the NAFA meet given his responsibilities as NAFA VP and the need to maintain his hawking routine. Once back home from the NAFA meet, Finn (Heath's passage peregrine) had two separate adventures, which Heath details for us. We conclude the episode discussing the upcoming Arkansas Snipe Invitational.  Thanks for tuning in, I hope you enjoy this episode.

We begin the episode discussing Corey's dog, duck numbers, and local weather conditions. We briefly talk about "flushability" of diving ducks, before moving onto an accounting of the way the season has gone for each of his birds, starting with his tiercel "Sky Daddy" - yes, that's his name. We then turn our attention to "Beebe" (or maybe it's "Bee Bee", or even just "BB"), Corey's wild-caught, intermewed female peregrine, now in her 10th season, and causing a bit of grief for Corey. We then talk about "Veenar" or is it "Weiner", or maybe "Weener", Corey's 2024 passage female peregrine trapped in Arkansas.

Jeff Broadbent returns to the program to update us on his progress with "Jafar", his gyr-peregrine tiercel. We begin by reminding listeners of Jeff's team and how he is situated falconry-wise. Jeff's work requires that he endure a rather long commute - he tells us a little about why that's the case, and explains how he goes about ensuring that he experiences almost no down time at all. We then turn our attention to what has transpired hawking-wise since late October, and of course, I ask him about his most recent outing.  Jeff follows-up with his favorite flight thus far, plus others, including an uncharacteristic evasive strategy employed by a tricky sharp-tailed grouse. We conclude the episode with Jeff telling us about his addition to his hawking team. Thanks for listening,  I hope you enjoy his episode of Game Hawker Edition. 

Dale Guthormsen returns to give us his first update on his season. After telling us where his team currently stands, Dale details his approach to getting falcons to take and maintain an upwind position while waiting-on. He also gives us insight into the way that grouse use the wind to their advantage, and we talk about how to manage a slip in order to confer advantage to the falcon.  We finish of the episode talking about the way that Dale intends to manage "Whiskey Jack" for the remainder of the winter hawking season. Thanks for listening, here's hoping that you enjoy this episode.

Jeremy Roselle joins me for Part 1 of his Game Hawker Edition series. We begin the episode describing Jeremy's wide ranging background including where he is located, the birds he flies, and the dogs he runs.  We then turn our attention to his current efforts and Jeremy tells us about the landscapes in which he hunts, the quarry that is available to him, and the importance of having a good dog that can work in either forested or open landscapes.  Jeremy tells us about some of the challenges associated with winter hawking at latitude 53 degrees north, his preferred game hawks and the styles he want to see from his birds. Jeremy then recounts his most recent flight with his long wing, and a memorable flight on ruffed grouse with his American goshawk.

Steve Chindgren returns for Part 2 of his Game Hawker Edition series, and he brings along a surprise guest.  Steve gets us started by talking about the character traits of each of his birds.  We then talk about how the grouse have adjusted to the onset of winter. We then turn our attention to the effect of colder weather on pitch, and Steve shares a tip or two on how to get a bird to take a better pitch. I ask Steve when he thinks it's too cold to hawk, and we talk about cold weather weight management. Our surprise guest offers some additional insight too.  I wondered whether Steve had seen the usual influx of golden eagles since we last spoke, and he highlights some of the unanticipated problems that can occur. On this topic, our surprise guest offers an opinion on mobs, murderous mobs. Steve tells us about the various guests he has hosted at the House of Grouse this season, and then we conclude episode with our surprise guest recounting the events of a recent flight. Thanks for listening, and I hope you enjoy Steve's update.
